ANALYSISHow safe is the 2024 Infiniti Qx60?
The 2024 QX60 secures an overall safety rating of 5 out of 5 stars from the NHTSA, anchored by a perfect 5-star score in side impact protection and a 61 out of 70 in overall crash protection. Its 10 out of 10 avoidance-tech sub-score reflects standard fitment of forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and electronic stability control. Despite this, the vehicle's Safety Index score decreased by one point to 87, down from 88 in 2023. This decline is attributed to three distinct recall campaigns issued for the 2024 model year, which collectively bring the defect record sub-score to 16.25 out of 20. The 15 reported owner complaints, particularly those concerning the Electrical System and Forward Collision Avoidance, warrant close observation, especially given the latter's perfect technical rating. This tension between strong standard safety technology and a cluster of reported performance issues defines the 2024 QX60's safety profile.

USED BUYERWhat should used buyers know about the 2024 Infiniti Qx60?
Three separate recall campaigns have been issued for the 2024 QX60, a significant concern for any prospective owner. These recalls address critical safety components: the seat belt pretensioner, the airbag inflator, and the lighting control module. It is imperative that any consumer considering a used 2024 QX60 verifies that all three recall remedies have been completed through NHTSA's recall lookup tool, using the vehicle's VIN. Open recalls transfer with ownership, and their unaddressed status poses an unacceptable safety risk.
- The 2024 model year carries three active recall campaigns, one more than many competing model years, including a frontal driver-side air bag inflator recall shared across a wide Nissan-Infiniti platform.
- The Safety Index dropped one point year-over-year from 88 in 2023 to 87 in 2024, a decline driven by the defect record sub-score of 16.25 out of 20 rather than any change in crash-test results.
- NHTSA's side-crash rating is a perfect 5 stars for this model year, while frontal and rollover each land at 4 stars with a 16 percent rollover risk and a No Tip result in the dynamic test.
- Four of the 15 unverified owner complaints specifically allege issues with the Forward Collision Avoidance system, a notable pattern given that the same technology earns a full 10 out of 10 in the avoidance-tech sub-score.
